Pursuant to its most recent charge from the CAHH Board of Directors dated January 4, 2010, the Design Review Committee (DRC) is issuing the first iteration of draft Design Review Guidelines. These draft guidelines are the product of several months of volunteer effort initiated as the result of Special Design Review Committee Report recommendations. DRAFT DRC Guidelines 060910

Landscaping in Hollin Hills
Landscaping does not require Design Review Committee approval. However, you may find A House in the Woods, by Dennis Carmichael, a helpful resource for ideas about landscaping your Hollin Hills property.Authors Note: Although most of the plants recommended in this 1989 publication are still good, please check for any plants that are now considered to be invasive species (English Ivy, for example) and avoid planting in your 2010 garden!
